Inspiring and truly amazing paintings by David Haswell is guaranteed to ban those apathetic autumnal attitudes. Influenced by landscape artists Sir Kyffin Williams and John Blockley, Haswell's own work is a mix carefully defined landscapes, vibrant colours and exquisite talent.
Haswell who graduated from Edinburgh Unirversity in 1970 with a degree in architecture, now lives in Abergavenny where the hills really are alive with the sound of brushstrokes on his canvas. His ability to capture the atmosphere, whether it would be dark and brooding skies or effervescent hills, is a rare one, and defintely worth a viewing.
Particularly admirable is the way he portrays dramatic skies, using them to silhoulett strong features in the landscape, incorporating simple farming structures into the painting, something he learned from studying the work of his welsh predeccessors. His architectural training is also visible in the composition of his works.
Finding his own compromise in the media he choses to produce his strong images, combining the textural excellence of acrylics, which he applies using a palett knife, and the subtlety of italian water colours, Haswell's style is nothing other than extraordinary.
